Sarah Gibbons secures a makeshift splint to Maraya Whitaker's arm last week during a lesson about wilderness first aid in Joel Burns' outdoor education class at Soldotna Middle School. "If you ever break an arm or a leg hiking it's good to know," Gibbons said. "I think this class is a good thing to have because we live in Alaska," Whitaker said.
